Pema is the only son of a Tibetan family in a Himalayan village so isolated that reaching it means a ten-day trek through the mountains. Raised with his sisters in a children's home in the city while his parents stayed behind on their land, he now faces their expectation that he return, marry a local girl, and take over the household. The film follows Pema and his sisters, including one adopted by a Dutch couple and raised in the Netherlands, as they travel back to the family home for a reunion that starts warm and turns tense. His parents want tradition continued; Pema, used to books, computers, and city life, cannot picture himself staying, and he worries about his sisters facing the same pressure. Shot against the mountain landscape the family calls home, the documentary sits inside this generational standoff without pushing toward a resolution, watching a family negotiate what they owe each other across a widening gap between an old way of life and the modern one the children have already stepped into.
